Good Morning Saturday 6th August 2022

Morning all from bright sun in S Hants, hosepipe ban is now in force.
Both children and families are here this afternoon for a bbq, this weather has some benefits.
Good to see you back Mick.
Enjoy your day all if you possibly can ??

Good morning from a beautifully sunny Torbay.

A sad day as my favourite neighbour and good friend begins moving out. Her landlord wants to sell the flat where my friend has been the perfect tenant for 14 years. He is greedily asking for way more than its value so there have been no viewings in the month it has been on the market. Fortunately, she is only moving to somewhere nearby.

Last night we had our Dress Rehearsal for ‘Allo, ‘Allo. In the morning, DH and I spent time in the theatre to give him the chance to improve his projection with only me in the audience. It paid off in terms of a better performance. Tonight we have a final run through for members to attend so we get the feel of an audience before we open on Monday.

Enjoy whatever the weekend brings. ?????

Good morning all from bright Harrogate. We had a good fall of rain last night (that’s how it should be, rain at night sunny through the day!)
Good to see you back Mick sorry we didn’t get a chance to meet up.
Tried to get DD a birthday cake yesterday but discovered they all had maize in them. She has a nasty allergy to corn. This morning I shall have to bake her a cake before going to her house this pm! It was her 50th birthday on 3rd August, but she was away for a few days
Seems a long time ago since we were in Malaga, Urms. Can’t remember we’re we were staying, but I do remember we got a bus to Feungirola and a tyre blew! It was quite scary. The driver did not lose control of the bus fortunately and we managed to limp to the town.
Have the best day possible folks

Good morning all from the cloudy Scottish Borders.
Welcome back Mick
An exciting day for me.
It's been 4 years since I saw my DGS and he will come today with his parents from NZ.

Good morning all from a sunny North Leicestershire.

Not much happening here. We have DD1 here (not DD3 as I said yesterday) She is doing OK and it's lovely to have her to ourselves. I have to nip to the village for flowers and mushrooms and to return an amazon parcel.

Oh, and the football season starts - deep joy!!

Sending good wishes to everyone.

Good morning from sunny Colchester. Today's forecast is 23° feels like 27°. So hot and dry again. A quiet weekend as DS is not making his usual trip home. I plan to watch the Commonwealth games netball this afternoon. This evening Simply Red supported by Gabrielle are playing in the park next to our estate. We shall sit in the garden and enjoy a free concert.
Love to all ? x

Morning all from West Oxfordshire. I am having a lie in today having been up at the crack of dawn to let the decorators in all week. I have my fortnightly stint at the local interesting house today. Should be good. I hope OH can put the curtains back in the hall and landing and measure up for new ones to in the kitchen. I would like to order them pdq. Hopefully I can have a quick word today with son and his family. They are off to Barbados tomorrow for a few weeks house sitting.

Good morning from an overcast NE.
The heating has come on so it must be cooler.
I had a telephone appointment with a hospital doctor scheduled for 14.50, he rang me at 11am. I was in the middle of gathering together notes about previous treatment. He is arranging a CT scan and a colonoscopy presumably before he sees me in person.
My sister flew home to Germany yesterday afternoon, we were relieved the flight actually happened as she had so many cancellations on the way here. She was assisted through the three airports in a wheelchair which made her journey bearable.
DS and family visiting this afternoon.
Have a good weekend.

Good Morning everyone and welcome back Mick.
It’s sunny here on Severnside. I can see one of my neighbours going for a run before it gets too warm.

I’m starting a course today and will do some pottering and reading later depends how hot it gets.

Enjoy your day all ???

Welcome back Mick we’ve missed you! Glad you enjoyed your holiday even with the changes you encountered.

Good morning everyone from Malaga ? where the sun is just coming up. I always forget how dark it is here first thing. Himself is still snoozing. We have a pleasant breeze this morning and temperatures are expected around 36°C again.

Gardens this morning then this afternoon Himself has been invited by his 3 pals out here (one who is resident, the other 2 are holidaymakers like us) to watch the Rangers match in a bar over in Bonanza Square. It will be just like an episode of ‘Brits in the Sun’ (my guilty pleasure on My5 of late!).

I shall use the time on my own to seriously cull my wardrobe plus the overspill which has migrated into click storage boxes. I felt so liberated when I did this at home recently I’m determined to do it out here too!

The photo is from the landing looking down - behind the little wall there’s a nail bar, a pet shop, a mini mart, a hair salon where I go every Tuesday before LWW, then the two bars which are always busy with locals. Over the zebra crossing is the taxi rank - very handy for trips down to the marina if I’m wearing Car2Bar shoes! And the supermacado ‘Maxi Dia’. As you can see, everything is very handy - the Renfe train station is just a few minutes further along on the other side of the road and runs to Malaga city. Back this way it goes to Fuengirola which is the end of the line. Trains run every 20 minutes and tickets are so cheap - it costs just over €3 for both of us to go to Fuengirola for example. No wonder we don’t need to hire a car out here!

Good morning from a bright E Kent. Sun all day today, but mercifully it isn’t due to be more than a tolerable 23C.
Glad you had a good time away, Mick, sorry the weather didn’t agree with you. It seems to affect most of us on GM.
After an early and emotional start yesterday, saying goodbye to DS, I had a quiet day. I went to the library and dropped in to see a friend on my way home.
Did nothing all day. I really must talk to myself very severely and get going…. My mojo has gone AWOL ?
I’ve got nothing planned for today; a walk round the town walls as DH and I used to do daily, but nothing else.
Have a happy day. Carpe diem. ?????

Good morning from home in Wiltshire, it’s another sunny start here.
Absolutely nothing planned for this weekend, I need it to recharge after a lovely but tiring few days away.
I hope you all have a good weekend x

Welcome back, Mick I do hope that despite the heat in York, you still enjoyed your break away. A change always does you good, I think, but you were wise to take it easy on Thursday.
It looks like another warm and sunny day (quelle surprise) here in N Bucks.
I was woken by the one sound I cannot ignore, that of a dog trying to be sick! ??
Fortunately it wasn’t much and on a throw which has seen the inside of the washing machine many many times but I successfully rushed her outside in case there was more to come!
Things can only get better (I hope)
With gentle thoughts to those with heavy burdens and wishes for a pleasant day to us all ?
